1 Even though there has been some research on system evolution, there is no well defined vocabulary to indicate deviation of a system from desired goals. Further, there are no obje...
This paper describes the use of a multi-objective evolution strategy in tuning a fuzzy controller which is used in sewage treatment plants. The controller adjusts the oxygenation ...

—Reducing software complexity is key to reducing software maintenance costs. To discover complexity-reducing practices, in this paper we study the evolution of seven sizable open...
: From a maintenance perspective, only software that is well understood can evolve in a controlled and high-quality manner. Software evolution itself is a knowledge-driven process ...
